Posting for my brother David...

Taken on our trip to Amhurst Island. He edited it and I showed him how to get it ready for posting.

Should it be cropped tighter?

I love this, how the owl is partly obscured by branches. Very cool shot. Also literally, it has a bit of a blueish cast.

Best and happy shooting!

Wow, some intense eyes! I think this would be a good candidate for a vertical crop as the busy background and bright areas on the right keep drawing my eye there away from the subject.

Heavy blue cast and I agree on the crop. The yellow eyes certainly stand out in this guy

We fixed up the picture. Thanks for the suggestions! Am I allowed to post it (on this thread) before 48hrs. are up? How do you do a repost?

Thanks
Paul

P.S. No the owl is not suppost to be blue. It's the lighting.

Yes you can do a repost at any time. You can either replace the image on whatever host the image is being uploaded from, or if you want people to see a before/after comparison, you can edit your original post (see the edit button on the upper right when you are viewing it) and insert a link to the revised image.
